About me

Hey there!

I'm Chelsea (she/her) the artist and maker behind Chelsea Morgan Art.

Just a neurospicy gal, trying her best to make other neurdivergent folk feel seen, and included through my illustrations and products.

About Chelsea

I started this business back in 2023 because, for years I've struggled with being neurodivergent without even knowing. I was diagnosed with dyslexia in university, and ADHD last year and it explains a lot! I also have endometriosis where I get bouts of extreme pain that makes working a normal 9-5 almost impossible. Being my own boss means I get to embrace who I am including the wonderful time blindness that my ADHD has gifted me, but most importantly, being able work at my own pace to accomodate when I get pain. This business has allowed me to create the kind of art I wish I’d had growing up: art that encourages people to embrace who they are, no matter what their quirks, queerness, ailments or difficulties.

Due to being neurodivergent, and not knowing about it for a long time, for the majority of my life, I have felt out of place, whatever community I found myself in at the time, I always felt like there was something wrong with me, because I didn't feel at ease ever, always beating myself up for saying or doing the wrong thing, being called weird more times than I remember. Now I understand that who wants to be boring? I'd rather be weird than not be myself! I've now, after 32 years on this planet, realized there was nothing wrong with me and my brain, it's just a bit different, and that's okay!

Through my art, I aim to make other neurodivergent folks feel seen and valued. I also strive to make products that reflect the LGBTQIA+ community, with gender affirming as well as gender-neutral designs that feel inclusive and affirming. I also aim to include variations in colour for any designs where I depict a person, and if you see a design that includes a person on my website that doesn't include variations in colour, please message me and call me out on it!

I also want to create art that sheds light on the realities many women and other people with a womb have to deal with - from dealing with endometriosis, PCOS, PMDD, dealing with hormonal birth control and it's side effects, the joys of periods and the even more fabulously tough time that is the menopause. These experiences can be tough, isolating, and often overlooked, and I want my work to empower women and other people with a womb, to feel seen, heard, undestood, and maybe even to start some conversations about the things we’re so often told to just "deal with.

When I’m not drawing, you can find me hanging out with my two very demon doggos, Franky and Tink (who may or may not sneak their way into future art, or at least on some blog posts).

I'm also a bit of a plant lover, and have way too many plants than I can't actually take care of, as some have gone to plant heaven. I've managed to curb my plant buying obsession though to focus on the plants I do have.

Anyway I'm pretty much figuring out this whole running a business thing as I go, so bare with me while I work out the kinks. I might not have it all figured out, but I’m here, I’m trying, and I’m pretty determined to keep going.

So, if you love art that celebrates the oddballs, the outsiders, and everyone in between, welcome! You’re my kind of people. <3
